Ready for an unforgettable day in Cairns? Dive into the heart of the Rainforest World Heritage Site at Kuranda! Get up close and personal with kangaroos, journey through the rainforest on the iconic Kuranda Scenic Train, and glide above the treetops on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway for jaw-dropping views.
Our guide to Classic Kuranda
Kick off your day in style! Hop on a Tropic Wings coach for a seamless hotel pick-up, heading straight to Freshwater Railway Station where your Kuranda adventure begins. Board the Kuranda Scenic Railway and journey through hand-cut tunnels and past stunning waterfalls as you wind your way to the picturesque Kuranda Village. Take your time to explore, shop for local goodies, or visit the Australian Butterfly Sanctuary (extra but worth it!).
Next up: Rainforestation Nature Park for an action-packed afternoon. Chow down on a hearty Aussie BBQ lunch, then hop on an Army Duck Tour and explore the lush rainforest from land and water. Plus, check out the Pamagirri Aboriginal Experience, where you’ll not only catch a lively dance show but also learn how to throw a boomerang—talk about Instagram-worthy moments!
The fun doesn’t stop there. Get up close and personal with Aussie wildlife at the Koala & Wildlife Park—kangaroos, crocodiles, and cassowaries await! You can even snap a pic with a koala (for a small additional cost, but it’s definitely an experience you won’t want to miss!).
End the day in epic fashion with a ride on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, gliding above the treetops for unbeatable views of Barron Falls and the surrounding rainforest. With hotel drop-off at around 5:30 PM, this full-day experience packs in adventure, culture, and unbeatable scenery!
